Coats on Every Chair
Style: Brass band

[Verse 1]
Boxes stacked against the oven
Coats piled high on every chair
Somebody's brought too much trifle
But we all came here for you, we're here

[Chorus]
Lesley, light up this whole kitchen
Happy birthday, sing it loud
Every candle here's for Lesley
Stood there grinning in the crowd

[Verse 2]
Can't find a seat in this madness
Somebody's coat's fallen on the floor
We're squeezed in tight round the table
Just to give you one year more

[Pre-chorus]
Someone's shouting where's the lighter
Someone's counting all the years
Hold on tight now, here it's coming

[Chorus]
Lesley, light up this whole kitchen
Happy birthday, sing it loud
Every candle here's for Lesley
Stood there grinning in the crowd

[Bridge]
Doesn't matter how we crammed in
Doesn't matter what got spilled
Every voice here came for Lesley
This whole room got filled

[Chorus]
Lesley, light up this whole kitchen
Happy birthday, sing it loud
Every candle here's for Lesley
Stood there grinning in the crowd

[Outro]
Boxes still stacked by the oven
Every coat still on its chair
